Steps to create page3.1) Cover the scallops or tab with pattern paper and ink it's edges with distress ink.

2) Cut out a small scallop circle from a pattern paper and ink it's edges with distress ink. Paste it on the lower right of the page.

3) Use some paint markers and doodle some small squares and circles on it's left border.

4) Distress the photograph using the scissors distressing technique and add a photo corner to it's upper right corner. Paste it in the middle on the page.

5) Add a strip of lace at the bottom of the photograph and dress it up with some buttons on it's right.

6) Mat a quote with a white card stock and ink it's edges with distress ink. Paste it to the lower left of the page. Use a black pen to doodle on some faux stitches.

4) Add a strip of rick rack on the bottom of the photograph.

5) Paint a chipboard heart with some pink acrylic paint and use the "Apply Magic Mesh to your Embellishment" technique to dress it up. add a paper ribbon and a button to add some colour to it. Paste it to the lower left of the page.

6) Mat the quote onto a white card stock and cut it out using a deco scissors. Ink it's edges with distress ink and paste it to the page.
